🔗 What Is Trezor Bridge – And Why Do You Need It?

When you plug in your Trezor hardware wallet for the first time, your computer doesn’t automatically know how to talk to it. That’s where Trezor Bridge comes in. 🧠⚙️

👉 Simply put:

Trezor Bridge is the secure communication channel between your Trezor device and your browser.

Whether you're using Trezor Suite, connecting through Chrome, Firefox, or Brave — Trezor Bridge is what allows your browser to safely communicate with your hardware wallet.

✅ Why You Need It

Without Trezor Bridge:

🚫 Your browser can’t recognize your device
 🚫 You won’t be able to sign transactions
 🚫 Your wallet setup may not work at all

With Trezor Bridge:

🔒 Secure communication with no browser extensions
 ⚡ Smooth wallet setup and access to Trezor Suite
 🛡️ A safer alternative to browser-based wallets

🛠️ How to Install Trezor Bridge

 It runs quietly in the background and only connects when you use your Trezor.
 No personal data is ever shared. 📵

💡 Pro Tips:
